The 39 Steps
Synopsis
Share:
Alfred Hitchcock’s classic spy thriller, THE 39 STEPS, brilliantly and hilariously adapted for the stage by Patrick Barlow as the smash hit Olivier and Tony Award Winning Comedy, is back out on a UK tour after nearly 10 years in London’s West End, taking Broadway by storm, playing in 39 different countries across the globe, and delighting over 3 million people worldwide with its quintessentially plucky spirit and dashing sense of fun.
Follow the incredible adventures of our handsome hero Richard Hannay, complete with stiff-upper-lip, British gung-ho and pencil moustache as he encounters dastardly murders, double-crossing secret agents, and, of course, devastatingly beautiful women.
This wonderfully inventive and gripping comedy thriller features four fearless actors, playing 139 roles in 100 minutes of fast-paced fun and thrilling action.
From an original concept by Simon Corble & Nobby Dimo

The Reviews Hub
Always tongue-in-cheek, the show is thrillingly funny and villainously clever.
The Spy in the Stalls
A touch of Morecambe and Wise's The Play What I Wrote and a hint of Tommy Cooper.
West End Best Friend
The most hysterical comedy you will probably see in a long, long time.
